Is it possible to make a pdf open hyperlinks in a specific program instead of system default?

hope the title is clear enough.

 

i can easily add hyperlinks to a pdf but i want these 3 hyperlinks to, instead of open in google chrome (how we have our pdfs set up), i want them to open in another program which is used for pdf markups.

No, for security reasons.

HI, I am not sure that is possible.

Other thread talk about this: Making a hyperlink open in Adobe Acrobat instead o... - Adobe Community - 10475603

One of the challenge is to make sure the program is installed using the same location on every computer.

There might be a way to script this.
